  <history>Boundaries of officially defined province(s) were matched with LSIB (Large Scale International Boundaries). LSIB reflects U.S. government (USG) policy and has no known errors in boundary location of over 4 km. Unit codes were adjusted as necessary to align with codes present in IPUMS-I microdata. </history>
